    On March 22, 2010, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) filed Freedom of Information Act requests with several agencies for records related to their efforts to influence financial regulatory reform currently being considered by Congress. Several agencies likely to be impacted by reform legislation have waged an intense turf battle to try to preserve their roles and power. CREW’s request specifically seeks all correspondence between eight agencies – Department of the Treasury, Federal Reserve Board, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Office of Comptroller of the Currency, Office of Thrift Supervision, National Credit Union Administration, Security and Exchange Commission, and Commodities Futures Trading Commission – and Congress related to the key financial regulatory proposals and suggestions. These records will help the public understand how these agencies have tried to influence Congress and whether these efforts were proper.; CREW: Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC): Regarding Efforts to Influence Financial Regulatory Reform; Holder of Document: CREW; Producing Agency: Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC); Date Received: 3/18/11;

    Julie -

    The attached Technical Assistance of CFTC staff document contains comments with regard to the
    language you provided for review. As you will see, in many instances we offer to provide drafting assistance so
    please let me know as you find those you would like to pursue. In some areas, language is already being prepared
    and will be provided to you shortly. I did not want to hold up this comment document while the others are being
    completed.

    CFTC-CREW-0598
    I would note that some of the commentary is similar to CFTC staff review of the Administration's
    proposal included in Chairman Gensler's Aug. 17 letter to Senators Dodd and Shelby, and so may look familiar to
    you.

    Chairman Gensler is grateful for your willingness to consult the CFTC staff with regard to such an
    important legislative endeavor. If we can be helpful to the Committee in any way, please don't hesitate to let me
    know.

    Thanks.
